Disaster Report Part 1 (PlayStation 2 2002)
2Also known as SOS: The Final Escape, you play as a reporter who is in the middle of a severe earthquake and accompanying aftershocks. As the artificial island you find yourself slowly collapses, can you find a way off the island? Or perhaps, there's something more going on...
The game features multiple endings, several per character you can end with, although what changes is the character model and the few lines of dialogue. (In reality, there's half the total amount of endings, but technically speaking the game does have 7 "unique" endings). The game also features some dialogue choices that can help you define more of Keith's attitude towards the situation and depending on how well you treat your companions, from lying and ditching them to be rescued alone or taking care of them will result in a different story and ending.
The characters that appear in this game also appear in the second game: Raw Danger! aka Disaster Report 2 and the most recent game, Disaster Report 4 Summer Memories. Even in the spinoff: Kyoei Toshi or City Shrouded in Shadow, which is escaping from Kaiju's as they destroy a city, those characters make cameos.
Overall an underrated series of games that ultimately tell a story about human survival and greed.
While the Illbleed Comp is being worked on, this and the second game will be uploaded during that time. I did start the second game prior, so when I get to that point I will make those older videos unlisted, but still in the playlist.

Taken from the Wiki:
Disaster Report, known in Japan as Zettai Zetsumei Toshi (絶体絶命都市, The Desperate City) and in the PAL region as SOS: The Final Escape, is a PlayStation 2 survival action-adventure video game created by Irem. It was released in Japan in 2002 by Irem, and in North America and Europe in 2003, localized by Agetec. It is the first game in the Disaster Report series.
The game deals with the characters' survival and escape from the slow collapse of an artificial island. While dodging falling buildings and debris from periodic earthquakes, the player must find a way off the island. In addition, the main character, a reporter, must investigate the reasons for the disaster.
HP is the character's health and QP is the amount of energy the character has left. QP can be restored by drinking water. If the character becomes thirsty from running or other strenuous tasks, the player must provide the character with drinking water. If the player does not do this, the character begins to slowly lose health. Water can be drunk from clean taps or from bottled water filled up along the way. It is possible to give the character's companion water.
Ultimately, the aim of the game is to move through the city avoiding hazards and finding new routes through seemingly impassable hazards. When an aftershock strikes, the player must make Keith crouch, to keep him stable and safe from harm. Customization of equipment can help Keith, or in the case of certain accessories, change his appearance. Items are stored in the players backpack, which has a limited number of slots, but larger backpacks can be collected. Friendly characters are unarmed.
Keith is accompanied by various companions. At one point, Keith has choice of companion, Karen or Kelly, both with different areas to explore and storylines to uncover. There are seven possible endings to the game.
